Time Management #7 -Conclusion- STRIKETHROUGH TO BREAKTHROUGH

1. You can learn to manage time. Reflect on things you have done (which at first you were doubtful you could achieve) and let them motivate you can make similar successful strides towards effective time management.
2. Prioritize the urgent and important. Weigh decisions and using a decision making matrix. Discover hidden time.
3. Set limits. Remove time wasters and say “No” if necessary.
4. When life circumstances change, re-prioritize.
5. Consider new trajectories.
6. Invest Time – with God and with projects.

Technology has added variables that help with my time management. The “Notes” function on my smart phone sometimes replaces the paper and Outlook carries my schedule. I received my first planner in 1988, and now in 2015, I still use my old trusted habit of scraps. But whether it’s a pen or a keystroke, each strikethrough still marks a breakthrough.

NOTE TO MY READERS:
Thank you for being a part of my series on Time Management. I know change has been effected as indicated via email and messaging. Please continue the good work. And there is no homework today as you are now in charge!
Every blessing.Susan
